Reading the book as we speak

I am currently half way through the novel of Random Hearts. It's hard to say which I like better, the film, or the novel. They are both very different and yet both very good. There are things in the novel I wish they had put in the film, and there are things in the film they should have put in the novel. If anyone is curious I can tell you what exactly the differences are between the two of them.

Just finished the book. Wow what a trully unique and interesting love story, I have never read anything like it before, or possibly ever again. It's a shame the film didn't follow closer to the book, if I had to guess the film literally used like 2% of the entire book, thats it, pity, any thoughts?

This movie was the feature showed while I was on a bus, but because I didn't get to finish the whole movie I read the book when I got home. How does the movie end?
